■ "Walking Paradise" is not a big production, the story is very simple, commit crimes, interrogate, escape. Very little language and little music. But not monotonous or boring, but exciting and intense.

The story begins with a young woman walking into an office building and planting a time bomb in one of the offices. In order to avoid hurting the innocent, she called the female secretary away. But by accident, the bomb placed in the garbage can was dumped into the cleaning car by the cleaner, and it exploded in the elevator. In addition to the cleaner, it also killed a father and his two daughters. The suspect Pa Feili is a British teacher, her husband died of drug addiction, and many of her students. When she learned in the police station that the target drug lord was not killed, but four innocent people were killed, she couldn't bear it and fainted.

During the interrogation, a clerk and translator named Philippe, a young police officer, judged from the facts of the case that the drug dealer colluded with the police, worried that the suspect would be silenced, and planned to rescue her from the police station. The suspect is beautiful, but no matter how beautiful she is, she is an out-and-out murderer, and she is also a person with a conscience and courage. This adds to the complexity of the character, and adds legitimacy to the young policeman's "heroes to save the beauty" regardless of the future.

Many foreign movies ignore the law and only talk about human nature. Although "Sprint to Paradise" is not exempt from the custom, it is still full of new ideas and practical significance. Compared with some criminals in some countries who indiscriminately kill innocent people because of injustice, human nature is obviously more important than the law. Countries differ from country to country, they receive different education, and the qualities of the same criminals are also very different. This also includes the human nature of the police, which often makes a difference in law enforcement.

It is worth mentioning that the suspects fled not to survive, nor to escape severe punishment from the law, but to complete the unfinished goal of killing the drug lord. With the help of the young police, the drug lord was tricked into the police station and shot dead.

At this point, the young police also embarked on a road of no return. In order to help the suspect escape, the well-trained Philip used his ingenuity to risk his life recklessly. And his father was a regional police chief.

The director respected the choice between the law and family. When he saw the son and the female suspect on the run, he gave them a thick red envelope. This is understandable in Europe and the United States. The law does not require relatives to sue each other.

As the saying goes, "There is no hate for no reason, and there is no love for no reason." The young policeman fell in love with the beautiful suspect from the first interrogation. But what the young police did not expect was that after the suspect killed the person he wanted to kill, he felt that he was a guilty person and should surrender himself and be tried by justice. This surprised the young policeman and learned more about her.

European and American films, including films from other countries, will spare no effort to portray the complex personalities of complex characters. Just like this Pa Feili in front of Philip, although she has multiple murders, it does not affect her spiritual sublimation.

It has to be said that foreign films have fewer creative shackles, allowing art to roam freely and freely, and excellent works have emerged one after another. Monuments have been erected in the art gallery of world films, just as they have obtained promises one by one. Same with the Bell Awards.

Originally, the beautiful suspect had to surrender and be tried by the law, otherwise her conscience would be in trouble. However, when the young policeman expressed "I love you" to her, the suspect surrendered himself and was willing to be punished by law. The law is very important, and love is also very important, Paferi chose the latter, and put the law aside, maybe temporarily.

This drama, which only has a heroine and a hero, and hardly any other decent supporting roles, is cleanly shot. Even if the two of them slept together during the escape, there was no collision like lightning and flint. Until the end, there was finally something about men and women.
The first time they had sex was Nohe, under a big tree on the hill outside the village. Against the backdrop of the setting sun, undressing, two naked silhouettes, slowly approaching, embracing each other, far away. There are no close-ups, no close-ups, no body and air movements that are commonplace in bed scenes, unlike all movies.

It was at this moment that police cars and helicopters drove in silently. It is not clear whether this is because the police have a keen sense of smell, or whether it was betrayed by a friend who lived there.

Watching a movie is not only about watching the story, but also about the way, and seeing its recognized value. The highest pursuit or realm of art is to resonate on the basis of recognition, and only by recognition can it resonate and go to the world, instead of entertaining oneself behind closed doors and admiring oneself.

    Pale, young, almost morbidly obsessed with his younger brother's tutor Philipa, the young police officer Fillipo would rather die in love with her - is the screenwriter Kishlowski playing "shadow" word games? "Heaven" is an indescribable film, set on the ground in Italy, everything is reasonable and unreasonable, the only certainty is that this is definitely the most beautiful film Giovanni RIbisi has ever played in. http://hou26.org/zeta/gio.htm
